England to play All Blacks and Springboks in the 2022 Autumn Nations Series

England will play the All Blacks and South Africa in next year's Autumn Nations Series with coach Eddie Jones describing it as a mini World Cup.

They play the All Blacks on 19th November 2022 which will be for the first time since beating them in the 2019 World Cup semi final.

England will face world champions South Africa a week later.

Jones says the fixtures will be a really important part of their preparation for the 2023 World Cup.

He says it is almost a mini World Cup in itself and they are fortunate to have it less than a year before the tournament.
